Wow! Amazing, isn’t it, to watch the enormous accomplishments of the athletes in the 2014 Winter Olympics?
While most of us will never rise to that level of achievement in sports, how might those participants give us an example of setting our own personal challenges, befitting our talents and interests, and meeting them?
I wish you success in meeting your goals in 2014!
Here’s a link to a blog entry, by Joe Udo published by US News & World Report, that I just read about retirement . It may be helpful to think about how to plan for the unexpected results of retiring. Enjoy!

Summer’s well over now and the end-of-2013 holiday season is not yet here. Maybe you have a bit of relatively stable time. What a great period to think about your life and where you want to go….what you want to be doing with your time.
Does the cooler weather invigorate you to act? Remember, there is no obligation if you call for a free phone consultation to see if we might partner to help you move forward toward your goals!
It was a pleasure to meet everyone who came by my table on Sat. Sept. 7th at the Holiday Inn Airport’s Business Expo sponsored by Reciproty. Keep in touch!
Thanks to all who stopped by my table at National Night Out (NNO) the evening of Tues. August 6th in the Hollywood neighborhood of Northeast Portland. I enjoyed speaking with you!
Today is Patriot Day….a good day to think about how we might help each other in our homeland through volunteer work or other means…. as we remember those we lost on 9/11 and honor our heroes of that day.
“A good plan today is better than a perfect plan tomorrow.”
– George S. Patton
Today, August 28th, 2013, is the 50th Anniversary of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s speech known as “I Have a Dream” delivered at the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom on this day in 1963. For educational purposes, here is a link to the archived text*: http://www.archives.gov/press/exhibits/dream-speech.pdf
While we honor Dr. King and all those who struggled and continue to struggle for equality and justice, you might also think today about the following: What dreams do you have? For yourself? For our society? What are your goals and aspirations?
*Please note: While text of the full speech appears to fall under “fair use” for reproduction, my research has shown that there remain copyright considerations for other media.
If you missed me at the Fremont Fest Aug. 3rd, stop by my table on Tuesday Aug. 6th, 6-8 pm in the Hollywood neighborhood for National Night Out (between NE 41st/42nd Aves & NE Tillamook & Hancock Sts in the parking lot).
